In our read-throughput test the drive peaked at the 8MB block mark at 5,443MB/s, quite some way short of the official maximum of 7,450MB/s. However, it was 180MB/s faster than the heatsink version of the previous generation SSD 980 Pro and 283MB/s faster than the standard SSD 980 Pro.

In the write throughput test, the drive peaked at the end of the test with a result of 5,926MB/s. Once again slower than the official maximum but a lot faster than the two models of the previous generation SSD 980 Pro; 1,886MB/s in the case of the heatsink-equipped drive and 1,903MB/s for the standard one.
